“[Precise] i3 for Oracle has changed the way we troubleshoot performance problems. The old approach took up to a day of a highly skilled application developer's time. Now our DBAs can locate the problem statements in minutes and pass that information to the engineer, saving a great deal of time.”
Precise for Oracle Apps
Managing Oracle Applications
Oracle Applications support critical business processes in areas such as Financials, ERP, and SCM-all components of the Oracle E-Business suite. The Oracle Applications support team, consisting of applications, databases, network, and storage administrators, has the critical role of ensuring that any interruption to service is resolved before the business suffers.
Challenges in Managing Oracle Applications
Oracle Applications are supported by and communicate with a multitude of database instances, application servers, and web servers as well as many other components. All of these components work together to serve thousands of processes, forms, users, and transactions; all of them connect to Oracle Applications from different geographical locations; and all are expected to have high availability and fast response times. To understand the nature of performance losses in Oracle Applications and to resolve them effectively, the support team needs deep visibility into transactions, users, forms, program, locations, and business functions, and an understanding of how they are tied to the performance loss. Precise for Oracle Applications continually monitors Oracle Applications and the entire infrastructure that supporting them in order to:
- Deliver alerts on performance degradation
- Identify performance trends to forecast and prevent future performance degradations and business impact
- Troubleshoot Oracle application performance incidents
- Track down application transactions across the different tiers such as Web, Java EE, database and storage
Precise helps Oracle Applications support teams identify failing or underperforming components, prevent the most critical problems from impacting the business, and resolve the rest in a timely manner.
